The Pine Wonder Has Arrived

[DrumBob]

I picked up my Squier Classic Vibe Tele earlier today, got the extra 10% off due to tomorrow being some kind of special Fender discount day, and paid $305 plus tax. I have been playing it since I got home and am so stoked with the feel, the sound, and the fact that IT STAYS PERFECTLY IN TUNE! No matter how much I slam it.

I can't believe the Chinese actually got these right. Maybe I just got a great one and the rest or so-so or hit & miss? I know I liked the sunburst Strat I played in the same series. The salesguy at the music store told me that the Fender rep was in a few weeks ago, and even he commented that this Tele was a "really good one."

Please don't ask me to post pics. I don't know how, and can't be bothered learning.

Nope, the CV Teles really are that good.

No problem, no derail. I kind of wanted someone to reinforce the fact that the Classic Vibe guitars werer as good as they seem to be. I liked that Strat too. It actually felt like an old one. Now, if I get one, I need to have it relic'd, as I may do with this Tele. They look too pretty and shiny.

Serious gas going on for that Tele.....played one Friday night until they kicked me out of the store. Have the 50's Strat and love it.

I dont even like the sounds of Teles and I LOVED the classic vibe Tele when I played it. Definitely got the GAS for that now (especially since I am hearing all this love for it again!)

Ack. Off to the guitar store today I suppose...
